Most of us have wanted a beautiful woman in our lives but get frightened off by the HIGH maintanance. Please don't missunderstand , I've known a couple of beauties that would be happy at a picknic with some BBQ and a beer. But untill I met them the perception was gowns and formal coctail parties. We would fall and said woman wouldnot even be close. She"liked our company". It is a terrible tipe of rejection, you're fun , nice and a pleasure to be with BUT I'M a8 and your a 6 and 14 is my unlucky number. Sorry!


I drive a Porsche 911 Carrera 4 Cabriolet I've got a 34 Ford 5 window coupe in my garage next to a1951 Buick and my FLSTSB Harley. I don't even try to date. I may be reaching to say I'm a 6 but I can carry on a conversation about anything from Nuclear power plants to botany to Icktheoligy. I'm not too handy around the house because I was wounded in Viet Nam and have limited use of my right arm.


Pretty women make most of us WANT to pamper our women. I've got 6 ct. of emeralds waiting for the right woman. I'm just tired of the BS of the hunt.


I LOVE smart women. I like when we can play verbal tennis. It is so much more fun to play with a smartass than a dumbass. Heck I think I just wrote a profile. hagar101

This is a tough one. It's something about howus menare wired. We see a knockout and just assume that there is no way this woman could want anything less than the most perfect male specimen. Logically this isn't always true. Extrememly beautiful women sometimes are hampered by their looks as much as they benefit by them. Always remember that as one door opens another closes. The drop dead gorgeous beautymay only attract dudes that look great, but are only one step above pond scum on the mentality scale. Now if I could only figure out why she'll then call a guy like me to ask why she can't find a decent fella.

One time a Japanese guy came up to me and said "You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in real life and I just had to tell you this, but of course you are a foreigner and I do not speak English so I have no way of communicating this to you." Then he turned and walked away and then I called "Stop, I understood everything!" in Japanese and he turns back around and his jaw literally hung open in shock. We dated for awhile after that. So guys....it never hurts to try. [img]library/editor/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-wink.gif[/img]

I have had similar problems, I am good at just about everything and have an opinion on just about anything, therefore most men are intimidated. While they say they want a women that can cook, clean, and other domestic stuff, but when you can re-plum a sink, build an addition on a house, and have a black belt, they start getting stand offish. One guy even said, "you are kind of an intimidating person". I sure he was not trying to be hurtful, but it was. So were do I find a guy who can see everything I can do as a plus?

I pretty much automatically assume that an attractive woman could *never* want anything to do with me. My experiences in school and college hammered that home.

I'm going to guess that you are just too dominating. Peace.[img]library/editor/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-cool.gif[/img]

I get the same thing from guys. I have a couple of guys that are really good friends and they tell me all the time that I am intimadating to most men. I don't try to be I guess I just know what I know and that bothers alot of men. It seems like if a woman is pretty at all and has a brain in her head that men don't won't even give her the time of day. The only ones who approach me at all are married and that just pisses me off. I am very approachable and outgoing so I don't get it???

Yes, I don't get it either. I don't try to be competive and I am willing to let them chop the wood and kill the spiders, even though I can do that my self. Yeh, I get the older guys too, the last guy to message me on a dating site was over 50. My dad is only 55, that is creapy. I don't think my standards are to high, but were are all the good guys, even my great grandmother thinks there is a shortage. Still looking!!!

Well, it doesn't look like we're going to get the answer from any of the guys on here. I guess maybe if we just act dumb and weak maybe we'll get more offers. No Thanks!!

I'd like to take you to lunch one day in September sorry, don't know the exact day yet I'm driveing my sons motherinlaw out to the left coast sometime then.
I'm going to drop her off for a couple weeks with her family. I have people I knew 27 years ago in San Jose then it's up to Astoria, Oregon for a few days and on to Seattle, WA. See an old war buddy then my brother in Port Orchard, Wa. Have to check the weather before I decide what route to take back to K.C.


Only thing to worry about is snow because I'm putting the summer tires back on when I get home from this trip. I'm in Katy, Texas now Should have put them on for this one. No time.
